Practical use of wheat flour ferment with L. acidophilus during noodlemanufacturing was investigated. Water absorption decreased and overall mechanical tolerance index increased with ferment addition up to 20%. Amylograph of flour with ferment showed initial gelatinization temperatures of control, and 5% ferment-and ferment-added groups were equal. Maximum viscosity decreased by ferment addition. L, b and a values of dough increased proportionally with added ferment. Color of doughs with ferment was generally ligher. Total color difference of doughs added with ferment was higher than that of control group.

This study was performed to evaluate the physicochemical and quality characteristics of dried noodles when different concentrations of Enteromorpha intenstinalis powder (EIP) were added to the wheat flour, thereby determining which noodle recipe was preferred. The cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, and viscosity of the prepared with noodles were measured, and then a sensory evaluation was conducted on them. The gelatinization points of the composite Enteromorpha intenstinalis powder-wheat flour were shown to have an increased viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes. As measured via amylograph, the maximum viscosity values of those samples decreased with increasing EIP content. Also, when increased amounts of EIP were added, both the L and b values were reduced, whereas the a value was increased. The color values, weight and volume of the cooked noodles increased, as did the turbidity of the soup. With regard to the textural characteristics, the EIP additive increased hardness and reduced adhesiveness, cohesiveness and springiness. Overall, according to the results of our sensory evaluations, the noodles prepared with 5% EIP were preferred over other noodles.

Quality characteristics of dough and noodles prepared from Korean wheat flours (Gru and Tapdong) were evaluated by substituting foreign wheat flours and starch in the formula. Korean wheat flours showed greater water absorption and weakness as well as protein and ash contents, but lower stability than the foreign wheat (control) By increasing substituted foreign wheat flours, water absorption of domestic Gru and Tapdong decreased. Dough development time decreased for Tapdong by substituting up to 30％ with foreign wheat flours. When imported wheat flours added in Gru and Tapdong, weakness of dough was decreased. Adhesiveness of dough was increased in all samples according to water adding, and Gru particulary showed the most high adhesiveness at 65% water and 10~20% replacement. From the mechanical texture test, Tapdong noodles were increased in cutting force by increasing amounts of imported wheat but decreased in extension distance. However, Cru noodles showed the opposite tendency. Hardness, adhesiveness, and chewiness of noodles were increased in all samples by increasing amounts of substitution with imported starch. As a result of cooked noodles test, Korean wheat noodles showed relatively lower values in cutting force and extension distance than in those of the control Studies of noodle-related characteristics of Korean wheat flours indicated that domestic soft wheat such as Gru might have high quality above the foreign wheat in noodle preparation by adding flours containing high amylose or low gluten.

Flour characteristics and end-use quality of 10 commercial flours produced from Korean wheat (Kcom) were evaluated to assess consumersatisfaction with Korean wheat compared with commercial flour (Com) prepared from imported wheats. Two types of Kcom, whole wheatflour and white wheat flour, were found in various markets. Whole wheat flours showed higher ash and protein content, lower lightness, and higher water absorption in mixography, than did white wheat flours. The amylose content of Kcom was similar to that of Com, but peak viscosity and breakdown of Kcom were lower than those of Com. Noodle dough sheet prepared from white flours of Kcom was thinner and lighter than dough sheets prepared using whole wheat flours. Compared to Com, Kcom showed lower noodle dough sheet lightness. The hardness of cooked noodles prepared with Kcom was similar to that of noodles made from Com. When used for bread baking, Kcom showed lower loaf volume, lower crumb lightness, and higher crumb firmness, than did Com.

This study was undertaken to investigate the removal efficiency of heavy metals (Cd, Pb) in rice and wheat flour by cooking and processing. After four times washing of rice grains with water, the removal ratios of cadmium and lead from artificially-contaminated samples were 39.271 and 34.9%, respectively. In cookingof rice grains washed three-times with water, the residue levels of cadmium and lead decreased to 85.7%, 83.0% in electric rice cooker and 74.51%, 72.6% in pressure rice cooker, respectively. No significant difference was observed in the removal of the metals between naturally-contaminated and artificially contaminated rice samples, and between the electric and pressure rice cookers. In baking of artificially-contaminated wheat flour into cookie and loaf bread, the removal ratios of cadmium and lead were negligible as expected. When knife-cut noodle was made from artificially-contaminated wheat flour and boiled in water, 75% of the metals were found in the noodle solids and only 25% of them were removed into the broth.

Recent trial results suggest that the consumption of a low glycemic index (GI) diet is beneficial in the prevention of high blood glucose levels. Identifying active hypoglycemic substances in ordinary foods could be a significant benefit to the management of blood glucose. It has been hypothesized that noodles with Bombyx mori powder are a low GI food. We evaluated GI and changes in postprandial glucose levels following consumption of those noodles and compared them with those following consumption of plain wheat flour noodles (control) and glucose (reference) in healthy subjects. Thirteen males (age: $34.2{\pm}4.5years$, body mass index: $23.2{\pm}1.1kg/m^2$) consumed 75 g carbohydrate portions of glucose and the 2 kinds of noodle after an overnight fast. Capillary blood was measured at time 0 (fasting), 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, and 180 min from the start of each food intake. The GI values were calculated by taking the ratio of the incremental area under the blood glucose response curve (IAUC) for the noodles and glucose. There was a significant difference in postprandial glucose concentrations at 30 and 45 min between the control noodles and the noodles with Bombyx mori powder: the IAUC and GI for the noodles with Bombyx mori powder were significantly lower than those for glucose and plain wheat flour noodles. The wheat flour noodles with Bombyx mori powder could help prevent an increase in postprandial glucose response and possibly provide an alternative to other carbohydrate staple foods for glycemic management.

The noodle making characteristics were investigated for both eleven varities of Korean wheat, such as Chokwangmil, Geurumil, Eunpamil, Tnpdongmil, Woorimil, Oigeurmil, Alchanmil, Cobunmil, Geumgangmil, Seodunmil and Suwon 265, and two varieties of imported wheat, DNS(Dark Northern Spring Wheat) and ASW(Australian Standard White). After cooking of dry-noodle, the elasticities were 0.59-0.79 in the native wheat and 0.55-0.57 in the imported wheat. Among the varieties showing the highest value in the various texture properties of cooked dry-noodle, Alchanmil was highest in gumminess, Geungangmil in cohesiveness, Olgeurumil in adhesiveness, Geurumil in fimmess, Chokwang in chewiness, Tapdongmil in tensile strength Gobunmil in breaking strength. After cooking the wet-noodle, Tapdongmil in elasticity, Geurumil in adhesiveness, Geumgangmil in gumminess, cohesiveness, firmness and chewiness, and Suwon 265 in tensile strength showed the highest values in the respective textural properties. From the sensory evaluation of the cooked dry-noodle, the significant differences (p<0.05) among wheat varieties were observed in color, texture and overall quality. As a result, ASW was excellent in our all qualities of cooked dry-noodle followed by Tapdongmil, Alchanmil and Geumgangmil. The cooked wet-noodle also showed the high sensory scores (p<0.01) were showing the best in Tapdongmil, followed by Eunpamil, Geumgangmil and Woorimil.

The rheological properties of hard red winter, western white and Australian standard white wheat flours and of HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends having the same protein content were studied. Cooking properties of dry noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends were also investigated. The noodles were prepared with salt and alkaline reagent. The salt and alkaline concentrations used were 1.7% and 0.17%. respectively, based on the weight of wheat flour. The alkaline reagent was an equal mixture of sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate. The HRW-ASW wheat flour blend had higher farinograph absorption and slightly stronger curve than HRW-WW wheat flour blend. Salt decreased the absorption of wheat flours by 2 and of wheat flour blends by 1%. However, alkaline reagent essentially had no effort on farinograph absorption. Salt and alkaline reagent strengthened the dough of wheat floors and wheat flour blends, with the former being more effective. No significant differences in pasting properties between HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends by amylograph were observed. There were no significant differences in rate of increase of weight or volume between noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends. Alkaline reagent did not affect the weight gain of noodles hut lowered the volume gain. Breaking force of dry noodles and cutting force of cooked noodles were similar between the two noodles. Alkaline reagent increased both the breaking and cutting forces of noodles. Sensory evaluation revealed that the noodles prepared from HRW-WW and HRW-ASW wheat flour blends were slightly different. but not different from each other by preference test.

For the improvement of the nutritive value of extruded noodles, dry soymilk residue flour (DSRF) was mixed with wheat How. The effects of the addition of DSRF on the viscosity of wheat flour and the quality of cooked noodles were evaluated As the proportion of DSRF addition was in-creased the viscosity of composite flour was decreased And so were the texture and cooking quality of noodles. To improve noodle-making characteristics of extruded noodles with 10% DRFF, Na-alginate, Na-carboxymethyl cellulose, guar gum crude gluten and xanthan gum were added. Then, the noodle-making characteristics were examined. The viscosity increased with the increase in the concentration of additives and Bnnthan gum was the most effective. The texture of noodles supplemented by Na-alginate 2.0%, Na-carboxymethyl cellulose 2.0%, guar gum 2.0%, xanthan gum 1.0% was similar to that of wheat flour noodles. The results of sensory test (color and texture) was coincidal with the results of instumental tests.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal amount of alkaline reagent (0.2 or 0.4%) and rice flour (10-40%) for noodle and supplementation, and compare quality characteristics with those of wheat noodles. Texture properties, pH, tension profiles, and cooking quality of noodles supplemented with rice flour and alkaline reagent were measured. Wheat noodles with 0.4% alkaline reagent added displayed increased b values (Hunter's color), pH, hardness, chewiness, tension profiles, and turbidity, and decreased L, and a values, gumminess, weight, and water absorption compared to wheat noodles with 0.2% alkaline reagent added. Hardness and springiness of wheat noodles with 0.4% alkaline reagent added were 35.2 and 0.0118 N, respectively. These values for rice doodles with 0.4% alkaline reagent and 20% rice flour were similar (36.3, 0.0117 N, respectively). This suggests that addition of 0.4% alkaline reagent and 20% rice flour may be the optimal parameters for producing rice noodle.
